The Tennessee Driver Education Course does not guarantee an insurance discount, as discounts are offered at your insurer’s discretion and are not required by Tennessee law. Always confirm with your insurer before enrolling if your main goal is an insurance discount.
Completing the Tennessee Driver Education Course can sometimes lead to an insurance discount, but this is not automatic or required by state law. Each insurer sets its own policies about offering discounts for course completion. If you do not receive a discount after finishing the course, there are steps you can take based on your situation.
Insurance Discounts Are Not Guaranteed in Tennessee
Insurance companies in Tennessee decide individually whether to offer a discount for completing the Tennessee Driver Education Course. Tennessee law does not require insurers to provide a discount for course completion. For more information on course approval and regulations, visit the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security’s traffic school page: Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security traffic school information.
If You Confirmed Discount Eligibility Before Enrolling
If you checked with your insurer before enrolling and they confirmed a discount would be available, but now refuse to honor it:
- Contact your insurer and reference the earlier confirmation.
- Request to speak with a supervisor or your insurance agent.
- Submit your course completion certificate in writing and ask for written confirmation of their decision.
- If the dispute is not resolved, you can file a complaint with the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance.
Driving Logic can provide documentation of your course completion if you need it for your insurer.
If You Did Not Confirm Discount Eligibility Before Enrolling
If you did not check with your insurer before enrolling and your insurer does not offer a discount:
- Your Tennessee Driver Education Course certificate is still valid and may be used for other purposes, such as ticket dismissal or point reduction if allowed.
- Refunds are not available once your certificate has been issued.
- Driving Logic is not responsible for insurer eligibility if you did not confirm before purchase.
Refund Policy for Voluntary Enrollments
Driving Logic offers a full refund within 30 days of purchase, as long as your certificate has not been issued. If you completed the course and received your certificate, you are not eligible for a refund. If you enrolled voluntarily and have not finished the course, contact Driving Logic within 30 days to request a refund.
